    Considered Both Products
    SMTP2GO
    Chose SMTP2GO
    The deliverability and ease-of-use of SMTP2GO were the two main factors for me. sendgrid does have a little more functionality, but I didn't really use it.

    Chose SMTP2GO
    Well we used to use sendgrid in the past.
    But their base plan shares an ip with others, which means that more often than not our emails were blocked
    They changed they policy of connections to api and sdks. We found Smtp2go that has the same price range and so we changed for them.

    Chose SMTP2GO
    SMTP2GO was easier to set up and manage overall, and support seems much more accessible.

    Chose SMTP2GO
    SMTP2GO ended up being cheaper and easier to use. SMTP2G0 fit our needs better partly because it was more compatible with older systems, but it also hit the mark in terms of price for scale.

    Chose SMTP2GO
    Our goal was to find a product what fit those needs:
    • Can be use with SMTP protocol to relay emails from our webhosting environment
    • Have an API to manage the account and offer the ability to also send emails

    Chose SMTP2GO
    Some of the other services are really good but with the ease of setting up sub-accounts, the success in not having bounced emails, or strange receiving issues, the platform being so easy to use, and great support when you need it. They just don't compare.

    Simpler, easier to use, and way more cost effective

    Chose SMTP2GO
    SMTP2GO was easy to use and set up without ever having to go back and figure out why emails weren't being delivered. When compared to other solutions that had all the features I needed (multiple authentication methods, DKIM setup, reasonable logging), SMTP2GO's pricing was a …

    Chose SMTP2GO
    SMTP is basic, and basic is all that we needed. Just a simple SMTP relay with DKIM, DMARC, and SPF so we can abide by best email practices this product was exactly what we wanted.

    Chose SMTP2GO
    The price is very important and the support provided by the company too.The price and accessibility of the plans is one of the important things that differentiate SMTP2GO from other companies. If my email delivery is little, I do not have to pay large amounts, I can modify it …

    Chose SMTP2GO
    I really like the interface of SMTP2GO and how easy it is to use. I tried the other products but at first, I was having trouble getting the emails sent, so then I opened a free account at SMTP2GO and haven't looked back since. I will continue to use this product as long as I …
